It isn't just the hoverbike. You could just rocket shield and paraglide. Or use ascend. Or teleport to the sky and use wing gliders. Or the new towers that shoot you a thousand feet in the air. Or rewind those fallen rocks and ride on them.
A lot of challenges, including inside shrines, can be easily bypassed. A large part of what made BotW fun was figuring out how to get places. I'm not gonna pretend like it's worth scouring 100% of the map because unfortunately it's mostly empty. That's something TotK should have worked on. But instead they just reused the old map and took away what made it interesting.
If they really wanted to keep the crafting shit, then they should have made it sky only. Then you could focus on making aircrafts to reach islands. But instead the sky is mostly fucking empty and any of the few remote islands outside of the Great Sky Island is easily reachable with a tower-chute.
Anyone who says the only issue is "the hoverbike exploit" hasn't played the game. It's hardly even an exploit that takes a genius to figure out. And this is only ONE issue I have with TotK. There's still the terrible story-writing and UI and other shit inferior to BotW.
